Resources are essential for building strong infrastructure and increasing our effectiveness and impact for people around the world who have been uprooted by conflict and disaster.

In the past financial year, 69.1% of Act for Peace’s expenditure was used on our programs, advocacy, and community education work, while 18.39% was spent on accountability and administration to ensure our programs and funds are used as effectively as possible, and fundraising made up 12.51% of our expenditure. For reference, in FY24 every $1 Act for Peace spent on fundraising, we raised $3.49 – resulting in more funds for programs to help the communities we serve.

Act for Peace’s primary revenue and income stream is donations, gifts and bequests from supporters. Contractual grant funding from institutional donors is our secondary income stream.
